i'm just going to toss this out there as a general proposal:<br><br>1. move the sandbox completely out of the contrib repo, and make a<br>new one -- this has the dual benefit of moving our 'messy' space away<br>from our 'clean' space, and making the checkouts of the contrib repo
<br>faster/cleaner. you can then checkout the mess if you choose to. :)<br><br>2. in the new 'sandbox' repo, put a limit on how much each user can<br>have in their active folder -- maybe 1 or 2 MB, which should be<br>plenty for an experimental code home. i think this would be a pretty
<br>easy thing to implement. this would allay any bandwidth/space<br>concerns about our chaotic space.<br><br>i love the idea of having a more clear policy of what goes where, and<br>setting up systems that encourage collaboration. i feel that a
<br>community place for chaos belongs in that map somewhere...<br></blockquote></div><br>Good points, however, I don't think bandwidth and space is the biggest concern atm, but a few megs is plenty of space to experiment with. Another option would be to have some sort of filter at
<a href="http://drupal.org">drupal.org</a>, e.g.;<br><br>Show only modules which are...<br>[X] Stable<br>[X] Beta status<br>[X] Actively maintained<br>[_] Experimental (warning: this might be unstable)<br><br>The same goes for themes, I have been thinking about maybe creating a few themes/modules and putting them at
<a href="http://drupal.org">drupal.org</a> but I do nit have the time to maintain them, so they would end up laying dead and screwing up users sites.<br clear="all"><br>-- <br><br>// Johan Forngren<br><br>/****************************************
